[Oxigen_Waste]

Am I the only one who behaves in a completely different way when they're online?

The whole freedom of speech + anonymity = disaster thing is pretty accurate, though... lol

 

[sixteen-bit]

Yeah.

I get many kind compliments on my haircut and glasses.

 

[cajunator]

pretty much the same IRL.

 

[Avixph]

No but sometimes the two mix.

 

[Menelaus]

I haven't gotten banned from anywhere IRL, so no, I'd say.

 

[balddemon]

actually you know what this isn't a good post.

short answer yes.

 

[Meier]

100%.

 

[Zwei]

Nah. When I'm online, I have a way bigger penis.

 

[ElectricBlue187]

Exactly the same though I don't say as much I guess. I am more careful IRL with opinions.

 

[Yobalt]

I'm an ass online. I would like to think I'm not an ass offline.

 

[Pctx]

The truth that GAF can't handle; Mostly yes.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

I try not to front too much.

So yeah, I'm basically me, everywhere.

What's the point in playacting?

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

I'm actually Expendable in real life.

 

[la flama blanca]

I say the F, G and N words in real life, but I'd say I'm much more of an asshole on the internet.

 

[Pau]

I'd like to think so, yes.

 

[Blood Diamonds]

If you consider me a cheery naive asshole then yes.

 

[blame space]

i go on huge diatribes

 

[Gilgamesh]

No cause I only talk to complete strangers about video games when I'm on the internet.

 

[Eidan]

I'm nicer and more reserved online.

 

[Count Dookkake]

In real life, I can make funny sounds with my hands.

 

[Acorn]

Yes.

 

[blame space]

no one is. don't lie you guys, it's different.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Probably.Im more of an asshole and give less of a fuck in real life.

 

[ComputerMKII]

I don't know.

 

[Kade]

I'm a different brand of piece of shit in real life.

 

[Winterfang]

I'm a cooler online even though I act the same way both places, my body is holding me back.

I have lots of quirks and I have trouble speaking fluidly.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

I'm not a fan of wearing pants while online, so I'd have to say slightly not.

 

[Zwei]

i go on huge diatribes

i find that hard to believe

 

[triplestation]

i have a bigger cock online

 

[Grinchy]

Nope, not at all. I don't see the point. I'd rather come on here and be an asshole.

 

[Deified Data]

I used to play up quite a persona online, but as I get older it became tiresome so now I'm just me.

 

[Kurita]

I'm funnier IRL
I think.

 

[CoffeeJanitor]

Yes.

 

[Menelaus]

Nope, not at all. I don't see the point. I'd rather come on here and be an asshole.

 

[Giard]

I act a lot more stupid IRL.

 

[Chainsawkitten]

I'm not the same person in real life and in real life.

 

[Tesseract]

more or less the same nutty behavior, farout vocab, so on. i'm pretty folksy, i can make the adaptives.

 

[CitizenCope]

Close but of course I'm more "safe" in real life. Perfectly comfortable with talking about whacking it here on NeoGAF and at Easter dinner.

 

[Half and half]

I think sometimes my jokes/comments are a little too subtle online. In real life, it'd be a lot more obvious when I'm playing around.

 

[BronsonLee]

I am the exact same. Even right down to my name.

If anything, I'm more reserved online.

 

[Earthstrike]

Kind of. On neogaf I'm a lot more inclined to comment on things pertaining to video games or politics. In real life, its more the usual kind of banter of stories about what you did last week, etc.

 

[Akkad]

Hell no!

 

[SquiddyCracker]

Sure, we're the same person, but most people behave differently in different social situations.
Just as you might not behave the same at the work place, at home, and when visiting your nan, you probably won't say the same things in real life as you say online.

 

[Ekdrm2d1]

Nope, not at all. I don't see the point. I'd rather come on here and be an asshole.

 

[johnny_park]

No. I have a huge penis online.

 

[Surface of Me]

Sure, we're the same person, but most people behave differently in different social situations.
Just as you might not behave the same at the work place, at home, and when visiting your nan, you probably won't say the same things in real life as you say online.

I better question might be, do you behave the same online as you do in your most comfortable situations IRL?

I do, my friends used to make jokes about my online persona not being different from me in real life. I'm an asshole everywhere.

 

[Soul Beat]

Possibly. It's not like I have an online persona or anything.

 

[Drago]

I'm much more quiet and reserved in real life.

 

[AdventureMike]

Yep. I don't see the need to act differently or purposefully like a complete twat. Online or offline, people are people.

That being said, what ever gives you enjoyment, go for it.

 

[Poltergust]

I suppose I'm a bit more "social" online, but I have pretty much the same personality online and offline.
